CR480R:
I just bought 3 incomplete 500's..  One is a mostly complete '90, the better half of a '94, and a mostly stripped '87.  

The '94 has the tightest suspension.  Since i dont have them home yet i guess my first question is will the '94 rear suspension components bolt onto the '90 frame? The '87 came with a bottom end. Will any of the '87 engine parts swap with the newer ones? or should i just sell from it what i can?

Foxx4Beaver:
hey CR...yeah the suspension from the 94 should swap right over to the 90 without any issues.As far as the 87 parts...you can either check part numbers on Kawasakis website to see if any match up to the other bikes....or wait,and someone on here will know,I'm really not sure myself.

CR480R:
thanks foxx.  I would also like to know if the 18" wheel from the '87 will fit.

Foxx4Beaver:
I'm not 100% sure...but I don't see there being any issue swapping the 18" either,besides possibly axle differences,I'd like to try an 18" too...cause I always wanted to try out one of those nasty TerraFlex rears!!
